Las Palmas v Osasuna

Las Palmas vs Osasuna Preview

Las Palmas will be keen to avoid a third defeat on the trot in the Spanish top flight on Friday night when they play host to mid-table outfit Osasuna at their Estadio de Gran Canaria after being handed recent back-to-back losses by the likes of Getafe and Real Madrid respectively, leaving the hosts in the bottom half of the La Liga table.

Osasuna currently occupy 10th place in the La Liga standings but the visitors have now failed to win any of their last eight matches in the domestic top flight which includes being involved in five draws along with slipping to three defeats as well, two of which have been away from home.

Prior to their two defeats on the trot in recent weeks in La Liga, Las Palmas had previously put together a promising four-game unbeaten run which consisted of three wins and a draw; victories against Barcelona, Real Valladolid and Espanyol respectively along with a draw against Real Sociedad should still give the hosts a reason to feel confident about their chances on Friday night.

The bigger picture shows Las Palmas have suffered just four defeats in their last 11 matches though in La Liga and having also collected a total of six wins within this period as well, Diego Martínez's side look in good shape to get something out of this upcoming encounter.

Osasuna will also be keen to return to winning ways in the Spanish top flight as the visitors last tasted victory in La Liga at the start of November when they registered a 1-0 home win against Real Valladolid.

The visitors have only managed to capture just six wins in total so far in this season's La Liga campaign whilst also picking up points in no fewer than eight draws as well which have combined to overshadow the six defeats that have been handed to Vicente Moreno's to date this term.

The majority of Osasuna's success so far this season though has been achieved on home soil at their Estadio El Sadar where five of Osasuna's six wins have been registered, but this means that results away from home have fallen by the wayside.

Indeed, Osasuna have managed to pick up just one win on their travels throughout this season's campaign so far as well as being dealt four defeats in the process as well, which has seen the visitors come up short on the road at Girona, Rayo Vallecano, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

Las Palmas v Osasuna Verdict

Las Palmas have won two out of the last three meetings at home against Osasuna and the hosts perhaps look to hold a slight edge ahead of this upcoming encounter on Friday night as well.

Therefore, our main bet will be Las Palmas win @ 2.45
